Abstract: In the new era, technology is growing rapidly making everyday work easier or more efficient. There are still a lot of prospects to implement all the innovative ideas for our state. For this reason it is necessary to advance a whole new outlook for developing the technologies we have with us. This paper illustrates a method to provide a segmentation of Satellite images using Ant colony algorithm as a part. The proposedmethod helps in segmentation of Images. By using proposed method on satellite images itgenerates segmented images of the satellite image. This data can be analyzed and necessary action can be taken for the betterment of the state.
